Chapter 63: Merlin is attacked
"Give me the antidote, the cure, please give me the antidote......"
As she fell to the ground, convulsions and painful struggles and groaned, the wind sounded softly, and a man who was also dressed in black, but with a black hood on his head, floated in like a ghostly figure and walked in front of her with light steps.
Liu's eyes were slightly confused, his hand was eagerly grasping his neck, his mouth was wide open, his face was a little tense, and his face was a little hideous because of the pain. Opened his eyes blankly, when he saw the black boots with strange dark green dots on the ground in front of him.
The whole person struggled to get up as if he had grabbed a life-saving grass. He didn't care about the wolf and pain around him at the moment, and held the man's legs, his whole body trembled in pain, his face was even paler, his head was even wet with sweat, and his eyes were full of anticipation and pleading with the man's lips.
At this time, how can she have the dignified and virtuous lady that Mrs. Hou should have, and she is obviously a poor woman who has been tortured by some illness and pain.
"After so many years, you can't get anything out of a little girl's mouth, and you still have the face to do it? Is there anything the door master commanded you? If there are no more eyebrows, this antidote will be useful to other people who use it instead of wasting it on you in the future. ”
Under the black hood is the old man's thin face, and the voice is even more listening, which makes people die of goosebumps all over his body, dry and hoarse, but his words are cold, his eyes are like snakes, and he looks at Liu Shidao who is holding his feet and megging in pain without any pity.
"I didn't think that the woman kept things so secretively, I thought it was in the old woman who had been serving her, but until she died, I touched her body and didn't even let go of the bones, and I didn't find any clues. Could it be that the door master made a mistake, that thing is not on them at all? ”
The dry old man's clear question, Liu's eyes were more expectant with pain, holding his legs, his body trembling and panting weakly.
"It must be on them. Otherwise, with the forces behind her, I am afraid that there would have been action a long time ago, but there has been no action all these years. The girl they take care of, I heard that it has been publicized these days, can you find out some eyebrows in her? “
Liu's weak analysis and confusion, the dry old man must have analyzed, and asked her again in this place now.
"Since she was very young, I have been asking people to find excuses to move the furniture in her place, and I have not let go of the room they lived in before, every corner of the courtyard, but there is still none. I have also asked people to ask her all kinds of opportunities, and I have heard nothing from her. ”
The dry old man's inquiry, Liu lowered his eyebrows and gasped lightly for a while, and then replied in annoyance.
"Really? So why is she so flamboyant? I've heard that a few girls can't deal with her, and she can't move when she shoots? If so, how did she change so much? ”
"I ......" the dry old man's words, Liu's expression changed.
"So it must be on that girl, you'd better hurry up for me. If you don't say that I won't give you the antidote, even if I have the heart to help you, the master of the door will not be able to spare you. He can make you the eldest lady of the Liu family, or he can leave you with nothing, including your beloved husband and two daughters. If they knew that you were nothing but a dog under the master, what would they think of you? This is your antidote for the last three months, and the patience of the door master is running out, and I am afraid it will not be so easy next time. “
Liu's expression, the dry old man once again warned her coldly. After speaking, he threw her a medicine bottle, kicked his foot open with a look of disgust, and looked panicked and eager to pick up the medicine bottle on the ground.
I didn't even look at the figure who had just grabbed the medicine bottle, and the figure followed the figure that fell to the side, said coldly, turned around and disappeared as quietly as when she came.
"Woo, hoohoo. Mu Wanqing is all you, your mother and daughter. Let me live a good life like a human and a ghost, I will not let you have a good time, I will definitely ......"
The withered old man left, and Liu looked panicked, and opened the medicine bottle with trembling hands. Eagerly poured out a pill and put it in her mouth, and after she ate the pill, she was so tired and lay back on the ground. After a while, the bloodless face gradually became bloody, and the whole person seemed to be weak after a serious illness and struggled to sit up from the ground.
Depressed like a dying old man sat back on the futon in front of him, thinking about the pain he had endured, the hand holding the medicine bottle clenched his teeth and said angrily, the strength and hatred seemed to be ruthless if the porcelain bottle was not crushed.
It can be said that Wanqing and Hongyan went out of the city gate and went straight to the western suburbs of the capital.
"Girl, there are only a lot of people here in winter, and the whole Merlin is bare this summer, you are ......"
Listening to Wanqing's instructions, Hongyan stopped the carriage.
I want her to come to Merlin in the summer, and I think this place is more crowded in winter. Because this is the famous plum forest in the capital, it is also a good place for dignitaries, literati, and celebrities to enjoy plum blossoms in winter.
It was almost dusk, and when I got off the carriage, the whole plum grove was bare, except for the plum blossom trees that could not be seen for the plum blossom people to drink and dance, and the lonely and cold pavilions were full of desolate plum trees.
I watched her get out of the carriage with her own arms, and her figure staggered away with her injured shoulders to the hut that served water and wine to the people who admired the plum blossoms in the deep forest in the winter. Hongyan couldn't help but worry about supporting her, and asked confusedly about how good she was to get to this place.
"Sister Hongyan, I want to get my mother's relics back. I didn't know before, but now I just want to get the relics she left me. If it were you, wouldn't you be in a hurry? ”
Although she wasn't sure what was in her body that was worth Sun Fengyu's change of attitude towards her. But now, since Hong Yan followed her, in order to test whether there was any other purpose for her to approach her in the cold night, she looked at Hong Yan with a gloomy expression and asked eagerly.
"Your mother's relics? Let's go, then. ”
Hongyan didn't say anything when she heard her say this, and helped her step by step towards the place she said.
"Right here. Sister Hongyan, you help me dig, there should be an iron box under this tree. All right? ”
When he arrived at the plum tree that his mother said, Wanqing looked around to make sure that there was no one, and then looked at Hongyandao.
"Okay." Thinking that she was injured, Hongyan nodded in agreement, lowered her head and took out her long sword, and used the handle of the sword to dig the place she said. She didn't know that when she was digging, although Wanqing was standing behind her, the silver needle for self-defense was in her hand, just close to her back.
It can't be helped, now that she's hurt, if her mother's stuff is what those people want from her, she has to be foolproof, and she doesn't care if she's mean, she's too careful.
"Is that it?" Just when she looked around defensively and guarded against Hongyan, Hongyan had already taken out an iron box from Tucong and handed it to her to ask.
"Thank you, Sister Hongyan, for this thing. Let's go back. ”
After taking the iron box, Wanqing's heart was slightly lowered. After reading the description of the box, it is sure that it is the same as the mother's letter, and the key on it is also intact, and the box has not been touched for many years. Only then did he relax slightly, and said to Hongyan in his arms.
"Miss, sit down, it's getting dark soon, we have to hurry back, or we'll be in trouble if we go back and close the city gate before it's too late."
Hongyan saw her holding the iron box, and the whole person was cautious and gloomy. I thought she might have something on her mind, but I didn't say much else. helped her into the carriage, and he sat back in the front of the carriage, listened to the slight response inside, patted the horse's buttocks, and the carriage quickly headed towards the city gate.
In a wooded area not far from where they had left Merlin. As soon as their carriage entered, Wanqing frowned while holding the box and wondering what was in the box, but she heard Hongyan grabbing the reins of the horse, and then there was a sound of breaking the air in the air.
